"One of the things we might learn from history, is that the government's interests are not necessarily the same as ours
In fact, are rarely the same as ours. Because if you think the government's interests are the same as yours, then you think - 'Well if something is going wrong it must be that they made a mistake 'cause they really care about us'
They don't care about us!"
Howard Zinn cited by Vinnie Paz in A Power Governments Cannot Suppress
